What food do astronauts take to the moon?

Different astronauts took different food to the moon depending on their dietary and nutritional needs. All the food taken to space during Apollo was freeze dried.

Why was Neil Armstrong's moonsuit described as a sort of thermos bottle?

The lunar excursion suits worn by Apollo astronauts had to insulate them from the cold of the lunar vacuum and the heat reflected by the lunar surface. Circulating air inside the suits kept Neil and the other astronauts from getting too cold or too hot. Included in the helmet visor (highly reflective and tinted) was a vacuum layer so that it would not fog up.
